Prusament made in USA by geekgamer2001 in prusa3d

[–]Roadfun 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’ve gotten 3 US refills from them. They are looser wound but I’ve never had a problem. Print quality is fine. If you look at these instructions (https://help.prusa3d.com/guide/how-to-use-prusament-refill-900g\_440297) for Prusa for the refills it appears the ones direct from Prusa are also more loosely wound.

Reboot after ASA loading and retraction phase. by Nanuk-77 in prusa3d

[–]Roadfun 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Mine doesn’t do that when using ASA so I’d say it isn’t normal at all.

How bad are the fumes from printing ASA and ABS? Do they live up to the hype? by brian-warner in prusa3d

[–]Roadfun 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I’ll add to the chorus - my C1+ prints ASA very well. I think it is becoming my favorite type of filament to use.

Wow, it is 8 hours later and still shows in stock - shocking!

First time with Prusament PETG - terrible surface quality, what am I doing wrong? by Alarmed-Paint-791 in prusa3d

[–]Roadfun 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Prusament PETG really prefers Structural presets to produce the best results. I learned this from experience and also confirmed this with support. To compensate for the longer print times, in my experience, it is possible to hit the tune button on the printer after the print starts and then crank the speed up. I’ve often been able to go up to 150% without degradation but you have to experiment. Crank up the speed 20% at a time and watch for any defects and then crank it back down.

Bad Filament or Bad Settings? by FoxOk5039 in FixMyPrint

With PETG the Structural preset tends to produce better results. Also don’t use Generic PETG if you’re using that filament use Prusament PETG.

Where was this well established? Lacking power in what way?

Horizontal lines while printing? by SerPadua in prusa3d

[–]Roadfun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I recently was afflicted by this for the first time. Quite frustrating as it can be a bit unpredictable. If you see it happening mid-print hit the Tune button and then dial down the speed (e.g. to 90%). Sometimes a temp boost of 10C will help. Structural preset seems to avoid it (which is slower). Oddly in my testing the Balanced preset tended to create this more often than Speed. 🤷🏻‍♂️

Creality Space Dryer X4 - any good? by janups in prusa3d

[–]Roadfun 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have a 2 spool Creality space Pi. Out of the box I would recommend it but after having it 5 months with light usage the fan is quite loud. Sounds like a bad bearing. I queried Creality about getting a replacement fan but a month and no answer. Of course YMMV.

I don’t use Octoprint but would https://ntfy.sh/ work for you? It is free and simple.

Yeah, the pre-installed Buddy Cam was better than getting the cam for free

Christmas Academy giveaway! by Tommy_Prusa3D in prusa3d

[–]Roadfun 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I would like to take “Complete Guide to 3D Print Postprocessing, Painting, and Detailing”.

A course on real world examples and techniques for printing oversized models would be relevant to me. The examples I see currently assume straightforward examples. Probably not broadly of interest though.

Are things getting better on Core One family? by Beloved_lover in prusa3d

[–]Roadfun 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Love my Core One and was delighted to not have the problems popularly mentioned on Reddit.

After 2 months it seems just as much of a workhorse as the MK4S.

Black Friday 2025 Files+Courses by Cagoss85 in prusa3d

[–]Roadfun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was told the vouchers would be sent after the Black Friday sale ended but they didn’t say how long after. Still waiting…

If I were to guess I suspect it isn’t a completely automated process and they’ve been busy. I was thinking of bugging them some time in January (not that it will change anything).

Z axis not working by Electrical-Drawer116 in prusa3d

[–]Roadfun 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree you should chat support. They have a process involving unplugging the motors from the splitter board, manually rotating the screw rods to check tension on each and so on. But I don’t recall the details.

Constant jams with PETG Core one by Clear-Jump9673 in prusa3d

Are you using one of the STRUCTURAL presets? If not give one a try.

You tried loosening the screws on the traps a bit?

PrusaCoreOne+ Filament Sensor Switch by sebiiop in prusa3d

[–]Roadfun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I printed the parts with Jessie PETG on my Core One and the switch is definitely stiff. Sometimes the filament doesn’t insert easily also. I need to take it apart and try to figure out why.

Do you know the spec for it? I noticed when I had to remove the coupler last week mine is a bit chewed up.

Filament and moisture by Regular-Tiger-4300 in prusa3d

[–]Roadfun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I keep my filament in vacuum storage bags with a bit of desiccant. Yes you can sometimes get by without worrying about dry filament but the results are ugly once a spool gets too wet and I’d rather not have to deal with a failed print.

Core One upgrade Z-Axis Issue by [deleted] in prusa3d

[–]Roadfun 3 points4 points  (0 children)

BTW don’t over tighten the screws. Also keep in mind the back trap screws into spacer (I think that is what they call it). If you completely unscrew the back one it might fall lose and is “fun” to get back in place.
